    (continued from previous page)
    He never would go back again
    To the Barrack in Millstreet.
    Success, Success, to those brave men
    Who are carrying on the game
    The bridges now are all blown up
    And the roads are cut to Kéim.
    So that’s the stuff to give them
    Like they got from High Mill Lane,
    So we’ll give 3 cheers for the Volunteers
    And the Poet above the lane.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
